With the persistence of a sixteenth-century mountebank, Snoop Dogg continues to foist tat on the world.

The devoted and the gullible will have already forked out on a ‘smokable songbook’ and an energy drink so far this year. The rapper’s latest piece of snake oil is a line of cigars, released under the classy handle ‘Executive Branch’. Having announced the venture back in January, the California old-timer has now released a new promotional video in order to nudge hands closer to wallets.

Over a sliced and diced loop from Jean Knight’s 1971 classic ‘Mr. Big Stuff’, we Snoop hosting a bikini-heavy focus group in a hotel room. Highlights include the dinky trade-show merch table and the very bored chap at 00:24, who we’re presuming he’s on work experience. Snoop also pulls out the patois – something we can expect to hear a lot more of in the near future if that reggae record with Diplo comes good. Watch the video, plus a promo clip for Executive Branch, below. Other cigar brands are available. [via Complex]
